There's a reason why you thin the plants to 1 plant and don't remove the soil. If you need more plants, plant in more containers. Look at how wilted his plants get. The water on the sides hasn't even had time to dry off and they are already on their way to wilting.
None of my plants ever wilt, even in the slightest when I transplant them.
1: Thin the plants so there's 1 per container, cut the extra off, this prevents competition and dwarfing.
2: Keep the soil together on the roots; with throwaway containers you cut the container off if the root ball will not slip out on its own; it reusable containers you coax it out as easily as possible; this prevents wilting, dwarfing, root rot, and infections. It also keeps the mycorrhizal system intact.
3: You keep the leaves clean to prevent virus, fungi, and bacteria infections.
